  • A solid app with one very annoying flaw

    Overall, the idealista app works as advertised. The UI is simple enough, it’s easy to use all of the functions of the app, and it’s very convenient.

    However, that changes if you’re using the app in a language other than Spanish. I use it in English and Spanish, and it seems like the English translated information for listings and for the user profile do not get updated with the latest Spanish information. I’ve had it happen numerous times that I’ll check a listing in English and read the translated details provided by the owner, and then go look at the original in Spanish and they are completely different (my guess is that a listing is translated once at some point and the translation not updated again for awhile).

    This is a huge flaw that I would imagine could really inconvenience a non-Spanish speaker (it has inconvenienced me on multiple occasions). So be careful and check the Spanish language listings!

  • Love looking for my new home on idealista!

    I love looking at the available homes in Portugal on idealista! So easy the way they offer filters to screen the listings by. I would love to see a couple of new filters added to narrow down what I need. 1) Year leases available 2) Pets allowed 3) 55+, 65+, 70+ building or communities If these are available in The country? Do they have retirement apts in the country Like independent, assisted etc that can be rented?

  • Favorite Real Estate App

    This is hands down the best real estate app in my experience. I’m searching for a second home abroad, and this app is the most well designed, functional, user friendly app I have come across. Five stars for Idealista!
  • Love this app

    Notifications. On new properties listed from previous search criteria is super helpful! I wish that if there is an outdoor area like garden land or fruit trees, that listers would be encouraged to post more pictures of that. Google earth pics should also be encouraged.

    Right now its most user friendly property app available for portugal

  • Lissett Manduley

    I bought our first house in Italy, because of your site. Great app, easy to navigate a ne I live the map draw section. It really helps to narrow down location of interest. Now, looking for our second home. Thank you! Lissett
  • Best RE app for Spain, Portugal, and Italy

    We are considering a move to Spain and have used a few different RE apps to browse. Idealista is, in our opinion, the easiest and best organized one. We especially like to use the “draw your search area” feature as well as being able to filter search results for price range, bedrooms, bathrooms, and size.

  • Experiencing Portugal

    This has been a fantastic way to learn about the country and markets and plan for our future. I really love this app and highly recommend it. One improvement could be to have a search function where you can look for houses with a certain amount of land. i’ve been unable to see how to do this. thank you for a great program!

  • Easy to use. Saves your searches.

    I’ve been using this app for a few years. The new interface with google maps that allows street view is a very nice addition.
  • Easy to navigate

    I love it! It’s very easy to navigate once you get the hang of it. One thing I think can be better is the search feature. Sometimes it doesn’t work as well on the app as it does on the website and it can be a little frustrating. Overall though, it’s still one of my favorite apps to see different listings and look for my new home!

  • Great to look at available property in Italy

    The only downside is, you hardly ever get an answer if you inquire about a property, but apparently that’s just Italian customs. They don’t like dealing with people or potential buyers online. Either call them or find a local lawyer who gets in contact with the realtor who features the property you’re interested in.
